Filter by:The goal of this clinical trail is to non-invasively visualise and quantitatively validate an radiomics model of genetic heterogeneity in adult patients with diffuse glioma to help clinicians better guide surgical resection and treatment options. It aims to answer are: 1. To overcome the limitations of the existing genetic diagnostic process in terms of equipment and technology requirements, high costs and long timelines, and to enable quantitative studies of isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) mutations, thus allowing refined patient stratification and further exploration of the role of molecular markers in improving patient prognosis. 2. To achieve non-invasive diagnosis of gene mutations within tumours by taking advantage of artificial intelligence and medical images, and to test the clinical feasibility of the model through typical target puncture, gene sequencing and quantitative gene expression analysis. Participants will read an informed consent agreement before surgery and voluntarily decide whether or not to join the experimental group. They will undergo preoperative magnetic resonance imaging, intraoperative brain puncture of typical tumour sites, and postoperative genotype identification. Their imaging data, genotype data, clinical history data, and pathology data will be used for the experimental study.
The aim of this observational study is to enable rapid diagnosis of molecular biomarkers in patients during surgery by medical imaging and artificial intelligence models, to help clinicians with strategies to maximize safe resection of gliomas. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. To solve the current clinical shortcomings of intraoperative molecular diagnosis, which is time-consuming and complex, and enables rapid and automated molecular diagnosis of glioma, thus providing the possibility of personalized tumor resection plans. 2. To implement a neuro-navigation platform that combines preoperative magnetic resonance images, intraoperative ultrasound signals and intraoperative ultrasound images to address real-time molecular boundary visualisation and molecular diagnosis for glioma, providing an approach to improve glioma treatment. Participants will read an informed consent agreement before surgery and voluntarily decide whether or not to join the experimental group. they will undergo preoperative magnetic resonance imaging, intraoperative ultrasound, and postoperative genotype identification. Their imaging data, genotype data, clinical history data, and pathology data will be used for the experimental study. The data collection process will not interrupt the normal surgical process.
This phase I trial investigates the efficacy and safety of brain-targeting epidermal growth factor receptor chimeric antigen receptor immune cells (EGFRvIII-CAR T cells) in treating patients with leptomeningeal disease from glioblastoma. T cells are part of the immune system and help the body fight malignant tumours. Immune cells can be genetically modified to destroy brain tumor cells in the laboratory. EGFRvIII -CAR T cells are brain tumor specific and can enter and express its genes in immune cells. Administering patients EGFRvIII -CAR T cells may help to recognize and destroy brain tumor cells in patients with leptomeningeal disease from glioblastoma.
This study aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the combination of 30Gy/5fx HSRT and 20Gy/10fx IMRT adjuvant therapy. The total biological effective dose (BED) of the PTV is 72 Gy in a ratio of alpha/beta ratio of 3, which equals to the conventional 60Gy/30fx treatment. This study can provide evidence for future non-inferiority phase III randomized controlled trials. The abbreviated course of radiotherapy can reduce the treatment time by half, benefit patients, and utilize the health resource.
The purpose of this phase I trial is to test the safety of combining GMCI, an immunostimulator, plus nivolumab, an immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI), with standard of care radiation therapy, and temozolomide in treating patients with newly diagnosed high-grade gliomas. Gene Mediated Cytotoxic Immunotherapy (GMCI) involves the use of aglatimagene besadenovec (AdV-tk) injection into the tumor site and oral valacyclovir to kill tumor cells and stimulate the immune system. Nivolumab is an immune checkpoint inhibitor that may also stimulate the immune system by blocking the PD-1 immune suppressive pathway. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors and temozolomide is a chemotherapy drug that kills tumor cells. Giving GMCI, nivolumab, radiation therapy, and temozolomide may work better in treating patients with high-grade gliomas
This is a multicenter, open-label, seven arm, dose escalation, phase I study of oral ONC201 in pediatric patients with newly diagnosed Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG) and recurrent/refractory H3 K27M gliomas. Arm A will define the RP2D for single agent ONC201 in pediatric patients with glioma who are positive for the H3 K27M mutation (positive testing in CLIA laboratory) and have completed at least one line of prior therapy. This will allow for recurrent patients and also patients who have not yet recurred, but have completed radiation and will inevitably recur based on prior clinical experience and the literature. Arm B will define the RP2D for ONC201 in combination with radiation in pediatric patients with newly diagnosed DIPG. Arm C will determine intratumoral drug concentrations and biomarker expression in pediatric patients with midline gliomas. Arm D will determine H3 K27M DNA levels and drug concentrations in the CSF of pediatric H3 K27M-mutant glioma patients. Arm E will determine the RP2D for single agent ONC201 administered as a liquid formulation in Ora-Sweet to patients with DIPG and/or H3 K27M glioma. Arm F is a dose expansion cohort to confirm the safety and estimate the efficacy in recurrent H3 K27M-mutant glioma population at the RP2D. Arm G will define the RP2D for single agent ONC201 given on two consecutive days of each week in pediatric patients with glioma who are positive for the H3 K27M mutation and have completed at least one line of prior therapy.
